Overview of Green Acres of Standale

Operated by Retirement Living Management of Standale, LLC, Green Acres of Standale is a small, 20-bed assisted living and memory care community in the Walker neighborhood of Grand Rapids. The facility at 11276 1st Ave NW sits in a suburban area with a Walk Score of 44, so most daily trips demand a car. It opened a year ago and is designed with an intimate setting in mind, offering one-bedroom units and a focused care model suited for residents with dementia diagnoses.

Daily life focuses on structured, cognitively engaging activities, on-site meals, and transportation support. Fitness and recreation resources complement the on-site amenities, and respite care exists for families seeking temporary placements. At this size, the community works with closer staff-resident interactions than you’d find in a larger setting, which captivates families prioritizing individualized attention.

State inspections have centered on staffing and staff credentials, with the latest renewal inspection in January 2025 affirming the facility in full compliance.

For families considering this community, touring in person is worth scheduling to see the rooms, meet the team, and learn how the activities and daily rhythm match your loved one’s needs. Its focused care model fits occupants with dementia diagnoses.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Michigan

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Michigan?

Assisted living in Michigan supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Michigan Medicaid cover memory care?

Michigan Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Michigan) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 393 memory care communities in Michigan. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Michigan?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing.
